ThE President, in his recent mes
sage exposes pretty effectively the
weakness of one Of the principal ar
guments used by protcctionist DEM
agogues-namely the effect of a
high tariff on the wages of working
men. The last census shows that
1882, O99 of our population are
engaged in all kinds of industries.
After deducting the millions occu-
pied in various employments, it is
found that only about 2, G23, 0S9 are
working in such manufacturing in
dustries as are claimed to be bene-
fitted by a high tariff. e., about
six.sevenths are taxed for the bcne
fit Of the other seventh. But the
protection of this one seventh is
only illusory; for the man, whose
wages, it is alleged, are increased
by customs duties. on his way home,
has to pay, when purchasing his
family supplies of domestic articles.
more in excess than the high tariff
adds to his wages. IL working men
could be made to see this we should
not be long troubled with the tariff
abomination.
Mr.. Cleveland likewise shows
most pointedly how the average
wool growers would be greatly ben
fitted by large reduction, if not a
complete abolition, of the duty on
wool. 1t is probable that a large
proportion Of our wool is grown by
farmers having focks of 25 or so
sheep. Making the most liberal
allowance for a yield (6 lbs. to the
fieece), the extra amount secured
to the farmer from the tariff on
wool would be in the one case SIS
and in the other $50. 1t reqdires
no argument to show that the far
mer, when he goes to the manufac
tunsr to buy WOODEN articles to
clothe himself and family, has not
only to pay back the extra sum re-
ceived for his wool but also an adj
ditional amount that has been lev
led by the general government for
the special advantage of said manu-
! facturer. Truly the ways of the
protectionist are not wonderful nor
passed finding out, if you will only

day the New York Supreme Court
denied the application of a China
man for admission to the bar as an
attorney at law. The general edu-
cation, the moral character and the
legal learning of the Monaghan were
conceded. In fact, the Chinaman
is thoroughly educated, a graduate
of Yale, and decidedly bright and
intelligent man. But he wasn't
citizen, he can't become a citizen
and therefore cannot be allowed to
practice in profession for which he
has admirably qualified himself.
There is law of Congress, framed
by demogogues to appease other
demagogues, denying the privilege of
citizenship to one of the copper-col-
ored race. 1t was "Chinese must
go" threat which forced the I'M
American enactment and made it
impossible for the brightest and
most progressive of Mongolians to
identity himself with the republic,
aud enjoy the liberty which the
United States extends to all man
kind-save only the Chinese. The
lazy, vermin-infected Italian, the
ugly, ignorant Bohemian, the lout
ola Turk the thick skulled black race
from the Congo, the bloody minded
Anarchists, the bemb-throwing Nj
hilist, the revolutionary Communist
may come at will and stay while
their pleasure lasts; they may ac-
quire citizenship, hold Office, so to
the Legislature and make laws for
the government of the country; they
may do all that native born citi-
zen may do, and they frequently do
more. Only the educated, peace
loving Chinaman must stay out and
be denied benefits and privileges
which less intelligent, less enlight-
ened and far less praiseworthY for
eigners are invited to enjoy. The
Chinaman is denied these things,
not because he is unworthy, but be-
cause he possesses certain virtues
which others do not claim, among
them being habits of industry and
economy, and a desire for peace. If
upon his arrival be had taken kind
ly to our politics instead of to our
laundries, if he had united himself
with party, and sperth his time and
strained his lungs attending pri-
maries and elections and cheering
the uttcrances of demagogues; if he
had manifested an aptness for sell
ing his vote or buying somebody
clse's vote; if he had tried to make
himself heard through the ballot
box, and had not retired to his den
to do an honest dollars worth of
work for dollar and had not saved
that dollar instead of spending it
for whisky--if poor John had done
these things, he would not now be
hedged out of citizenship and de-
uied place in the trades and pro.
LESSONS. Rather would he be
courted by the men who popularize
themselves with another foreign
element by denouncing the Mongo-
lians aud melting the people to
drive them out.-.Sau Lake City

BRIDGE INSPECTION.

A correspondent of the Boston Adver-
tiser discusses the Bussey bridge disas
ter. He says it was a perfectly plain case
Of bad engineering from the start, fol-
lowed up by inefficient supervision and
worthless inspection on the part of the
state. He does not lay special blame
upon the Providence Railroad, which he
says has acted hOnorably ell through the
investigation, but he is decidedly
severe upon the system under
which that company and other
companies are working. He says:
We have in this state over 1000 railroad
bridges. Something less than one half of these
are iron, the remainder being of wood. These
wooden bridges, 60 called, rely just as much for
their eafety upon the iron rods which hold the
ii hers together as III on the timber Itself
There is not the ghost of a chance that the rods
in any one of these bridges built over ten years
ago has ever been examined to show whether
the material is suitable for its purpose or not.
We have no evidence that single rod in any
one of those bridges is better than were the
fatal Anglers IN the Bussey bridge. The Criti
cal points of these rods a5e as etfec ually hid
den from inspection as were the key-points of
the structure at Forest Hills Our railroad
commissioners ride over these bridges every
year and pronounce them all right, when they
know absolutely no hing about them,
His remedy is to have all the bridges
in the state thoroughly tested, so as to
bring to light all the doubtful points in
them. There is another point that is
worthy of attention, although Professor
Vose does not refer to it. 1t is the in
creased rate of speed which trains are at
present driven over bridges. Only few
years ago it was the custom to slow up
much more while crossing a bridge than
at present. But bridges used as they are
to-day must wear out much faster than
under the old custom. Not only should
bridges be thoroughly inspected, but they
should carefully used and not abused.
All of our bridges will stand until they
fall. Would 1t not be the better part of
wisdom to prevent their falling?

Texas Exemption Laws.
Lampasas Eagle

However much others may differ with
US, yet we believe that If the exemption
laws in Texas were modifgd, SO as to
allow man whSlend money or sells
goods on timesto collect his money, it
would do moref.o relievethe people 10
this "drouth-stricken" country than aR
the abuse, threats and Complaints that
can be made in the next ten years, When
money goes begging in other states at
to per cent, the man who ownsa smae
tract of land or few head of stock can
make bankable note, while in Texas a
man may be worth thousands and not be
able to procure bread for his family.
If the exemption laws were modified and
collection laws simplided 1t might be
hard on people who want TO hold their
property and defraud their creditors, but
it would help many poor people to bOr-
row money on their property, which they
cannot now sell st any price, and at q
reasons bic rate of interest. Texas con-
talns more land than any other state in
the Union. Her people have more live
stock than any state in the Union. Her
statutes contain the most liberal eXemp-
ton laws, ana most complicated COllec-
ton laws of any state in the Union, and
her people have less money.

PARNELL AND 1.-THE THUN-
DERERn

The London Times charges against
Mr.. ParnelI, asCribing to him sympathy
with the Phoenix Park assassinations, is
the sensation of the hour in Great
Britain, and indeed throughout the
world. The Times charge does not
receive Credence to any marked extent.
1t is hardly to be believed 8 reputable
journal, possessing greater prestige than
any other newspaper in the world, as the
Times undoubtedly does, would deliber-
ately trump up and manufacture out of
whole cloth such charge against Mr..
ParnelI or any one else. 1t must be that
such letter as the Times has republished
is actually in existence and the paper has
been led to believe Mr.. ParnelI the author
of the document. This belief must have
been very strong, too, for the English
journals are essentially cautious and
conservative, and paper OF the
Times standing reflects not twice but
several times before venturing on the
publication of, matter that involves the
good name and affects the character Of a
person of reputable standing, whether
that person be member ESTABLISHMENT or
simply an humble citizen. But Mr. Par
nell has character and prestige as well as
'the Thunderer," and Mr.. Parnell denies
the charges in toto. Patrick Egan, to
whom it is alleged the extraordinary let
ter was addressed, denies that he ever
ment until now. Mr.. Egan is in the
United States and bears the reputation Of
an honorable gentleman. These personal
asseverations Of ParneIl and Egan will
have great weight, and it will require
something more than mere ctrcumstantial
evidence-such, for example, as the fact
that the signature to the letter is won-
drously like Parnell's-t convince fair
minded Englishmen that the great Home
Rule lesder is guilty as charged.
It is to the credit of 8 majority Of the
London pspers-even those opposed to
Parnell politicallY-that they are sturdy
enough to express their confidence in his
innocence and denounce the means en-
ployed to impair his character and in
fuence. Mr.. Parnell has made such sn
intelligent manly fight for his country
and people that it is not strange he is re-
garded with admiration or at least hearty
respect by millions of English-speaking
people, on both sides of the Atlantic,
who will accept his reservations
as worthy of entire credence until
absolute proof to the contrary is
adduced. As for that great newspaper,
the Times, it would appear to have placed
itself in a very awkward predicament
unless it can establish the veracity OF its
charges. Parnell and his friends cannot
afford to content themselves with simple
denials. They will no doubt cite the
Times to answer for libel, and the result
must be q litigation that will prove his
toricsl, either by the complete vindica-
ton of Parnen or the utter discontinue
of the Times.

a scheme to Capture j ohm sherman.

KEY WEST, Fla, April %. - From
private letters from Havana it is learned
that party OF outlaws under the bandit
Mategas arranged to capture Senator john
Sherman on his recent visit to Cuba.
The plot was well arranged, and the
banditti were in sufficient force TO have
captured the Sherman party, but he left

the outrage just five minutes before the
outlaws appeared. While in Havana
Sherman took occasion to congratulate

THE GRAVEL BEDS.
Uses to which They May be Put.

FORT WORTH. TEX, April q, 1887.
To the Editor of the Gazette.
AS THE GAZETTE is now agitating the
necessity of establishing manufacturing
establishments IN order to build up our
city and encourage eastern capitalists to
invest and locate here, would like to
speak of one point (and strong One)
that have not seen any notice of in any
of Fort Worth's papers, that IS our mex
baustible gravel beds that our city
fathers make use of to grade some of our
streets. There is another very important
use that they can be put to in connection
with manufacturing establishments, that
isito build their buildings with it. The
Trinity and Clear Fork water is splendid
water for steam purposes. It contains
very little lime or alkali. 1t does not prime
or corrode. The gravel in the river beds
nature has mixed in the right proportion
for concrete. Your native lime is the
strongest lime 1 have used ia the state.
In putting up building for
manufacturing purposes l would make
the walls for one story eighteen inches,
one of native lime to fifteen of gravel,
we'll mixed and we'll tamped ia the walls;
raise one foot aidsy high in fair weather;
when finished take English cement and
mix with water and little bro In sugar,
and wash the walls inside ana outside
with the mixture, using a whitewash
brush. For a two-story building for
manufacturing purposes make lower
story thirty inches, one of gravel to ff-
teen of lime, using some brown sugar;
second story, twenty-four inches, same
mixture as above. and go over the walls
with the cement mixture, and you can't
shake it down by running machinery IN
it. will cite you to some walls and
two-story building that were put up in
Fort Worth in 1877. They are built out
of this same gravel, one to fifteen, and no
sugar or mOlasses added. The building
and the walls are now standing on the old
compress grounds, near the Brown build
ing. The building had two gin stands
running in the upper story for several
years without injury. If you want to
build cellar under residence use En-
glish cement instead of lime, which
makes it water proof and rat proof. 1t
requires very little experience or mechan-
ical labor to put up a substantial build
ing, and the money expended Gas it is fall
labor would remain with US and be re-
turned to the merchants for clothing and
provisions. ENGINEER.
